Great Polish Day! Essie Resort, Barielle Summer 2010 & Essie Wedding

Wow! What a fun day this is turning out to be! I wasn't really expecting any of these, at least not just yet, so imagine my delight when I came home to find packages with all of these beautiful collections.

Above & Below:Barielle Summer 2010 High Steppin', a six piece set of metallic hues, all disco-inspired! L-R: Electric Boogie, Slow Motion, Freestyle, Passion Pirouette, Night Moves, Belly Dance. Below is Protect Plus Color Nail Strengthener, which was also in the box. I haven't read the information yet, but I'm assuming it's a new product. I love the concept of Barielle's Strengthener mixed with color.

Oooh, I'd like to see the Resort Collection first! Sorry to see petal pink's demise. I just placed my first internet nail polish order and I hope everything comes unbroken. It gets so hot here (which breaks square-shouldered bottles) in the summer that I hoped to get the order here before the heat kicks in. Am cutting it close. I think I'll like 3/4 of the resort collection (not a big pink fan). -JenB

In the bottle shots Orly Gumdrop and Essie Greenport look pretty close to dupes. Are they? I have gumdrop but greenport was old news and discontinued on most etailer sites at the time I discovered the wonderful nail blogging world and realized there were so many wonderful choices in green nail polish.

Thanks for all of the comments! The swatchfest has begun! I've posted Resort and the Barielle Summer and am working on Essie Wedding and Barielle's treatment. Peripetetic33~in answer to your question about Northport vs. Gumdrop--Gumdrop leans a little more toward the blue side, while Northport is a bit more green. But yes, they are quite similar.
